Monitoring enables you to:
  • Create monitors that evaluate transaction data over a defined time window.
  • Compare results against a configured threshold to detect anomalies or performance degradation.
  • Automatically trigger alerts when a threshold is breached.
  • Deliver notifications via webhooks to integrate with your internal tooling or incident management systems.
The term monitors in the dashboard consolidates several underlying concepts—metrics, incidents, alerts, and notifications—into a single interface. In other contexts, such as webhook events, alerts map to incidents and monitors map to metrics.

Monitors

A monitor tracks a specific metric—such as auth_rate—and defines how that data is measured and aggregated. For example, you might configure a monitor to track the authorization rate for a new payment processor or for a currency with historically elevated decline rates.
Currently, only authorization rate monitoring is supported. The setup wizard is configured accordingly.

Overview

The Overview tab lists all configured monitors.
Monitors
Each row includes:
  • Monitor name
  • Metric type - for example, Authorization rate (auth_rate)
  • Threshold configuration
  • Applied filters
  • Evaluation period - Indicated by the stopwatch icon, showing the time window used to aggregate each sample.
  • A sample timeline showing historical values from oldest (left) to most recent (right)
Use the search field to filter monitors by name.
During the launch phase, each merchant account is limited to 10 monitors while usage patterns are being evaluated.

Samples

A sample represents a single data point collected during the monitor’s evaluation period. Samples are displayed chronologically, with older values on the left and newer values on the right. Samples are immutable, collected automatically every minute, and retained for 30 days.
Monitor timeline
Each sample is color-coded based on its evaluation result:
  • Green - The sample is within the configured threshold.
  • Amber - The sample breached the configured threshold but did not trigger an alert. When a monitor uses a verify sensitivity, breaches during the delay period remain amber and are not retroactively promoted when the alert fires.
  • Red - The sample is associated with an active or historical alert.
  • Gray - The sample has no evaluation data, for example when data for that period was delayed or unavailable.

Tooltips

Select or hover over a sample in the timeline to view additional context for that data point.
Monitor tooltips
The tooltip includes:
  • Status - The evaluation result, such as Normal, Threshold Breach, or Alert.
  • Measured value - The metric value recorded for the sample, such as the authorization rate.
  • Logged - The timestamp when the sample was collected.
  • Evaluation period - The time window used to calculate the sample. For example, a sample may aggregate transactions from the previous 15 minutes.

Alerts

An alert fires when a monitor’s threshold is breached and the configured sensitivity conditions are met. Alerts are sent to any default webhooks configured in your dashboard. See Alerts for the full details, including how to view past alerts and how the alert lifecycle works.
